Inhalt: Dieses Set enthält alle notwendigen Teile, um 4 zusätzliche Waffenoptionen für den Saturnine Dreadnought Ophion Konfiguration  der Legiones Astartes für Horus Heresy zu bauen. Der Körper des Saturnine ist in diesem Set nicht enthalten. Folgende Waffenoptionen sind enthalten: - 1x schwere Plasmabombarde - 1x Desintegratorkanone - 2x Photonenbrenner (rumpfmontiert) - 2x Erschütterungsresonatoren (rumpfmontiert) Die Teile bestehen aus Kunststoff, sind unbemalt und müssen zusammengebaut werden. Ein Bild der Teile findest du hier . Hintergrund: Der Saturnine-Dreadnought ist die gewaltigste Kampfläufer-Variante, die die Legiones Astartes je in Dienst stellten. Seine Ursprünge liegen in den geheimen Tech-Enklaven der Saturnmonde; schon in den letzten Gefechten der Unifikationskriege kam der Prototyp zum Einsatz. Primarch Vulkan perfektionierte das Chassis während des Großen Kreuzzugs und gab es an alle Legionen weiter – ein Geschenk, das sich in der Horus-Häresie gegen beide Seiten richten sollte. Der Anzug überragt selbst Leviathan-Belagerungsdreadnoughts. Mehrschichtige Adamantium- und Ceramitpanzer verbergen Schildgeneratoren und einen Thermaldiffusionsschirm, der Laser-, Plasma-, Melta- und Flammenwaffen abschwächt. Vergrößerte Schultersektionen beherbergen Teleport-Synchronisatoren, sodass ganze Trupps im Orbitalsturm verlegt werden können. Nur Legionäre mit außergewöhnlicher Willenskraft – Gerüchten zufolge mit latentem Psi-Talent – können die uralten Maschinengeister des Sarcophagus beherrschen. Die Bewaffnung ist kaum minder imposant. In der Chiron-Konfiguration feuern Heavy-Plasma-Bombard und paarweise Disintegratorgeschütze unter dem Schutz zweier Photonic Incinerators; die Ophion-Variante ersetzt diese durch einen Inversion-Beamer, einen Graviton-Pulveriser und schwere Partikel-Schredder. Alle Varianten können zusätzliche Concussive Resonators im Rumpf tragen und verformen so feindliche Linien mit Feuerkraft, die ganze Panzerkontingente sprengt. Saturnine-Dreadnoughts wurden aufgrund ihrer immensen Fertigungskosten selten gebaut, doch wo sie erschienen, brachen sie Festungswälle, überrollten Titan-Begleitschildlinien und schrieben ihre Piloten in die Legenden des 31. Millenniums ein – lebende Monumente für den Triumph wie für den Verrat der Horus-Häresie.

Inhalt: Dieses Set enthält alle notwendigen Teile, um 4 Saturnine Terminatoren der Legiones Astartes für Warhammer The Horus Heresy zu bauen, sowie passende Bases.  Dazu gibt es einen Abziehbilderbogen mit 618 Abziehbildern. Die Modelle bestehen aus Kunststoff, sind unbemalt und müssen zusammengebaut werden. Hintergrund: Die Saturnine-Terminatoren sind die wohl massivsten Träger taktischer Dreadnought-Rüstung, die je in den Legionen des Großen Kreuzzugs eingesetzt wurden. Ihre Kriegsplatte entstand nicht in den Marsianischen Schmieden, sondern in geheimen Tech-Enklaven der Saturn-Monde. Schon in den letzten Tagen der Unifikationskriege standen einzelne Prototypen im Feuer, doch erst während der frühen Jahre des Kreuzzugs perfektionierte Primarch Vulkan das Design und stellte es allen Legionen zur Verfügung. Ein Saturnine-Anzug überragt Cataphractii- oder Tartaros-Modelle deutlich. Geschichtete Adamantium- und Ceramitplatten formen gewölbte Schulterpanzer, die empfindliche Gelenke überdecken und zugleich feldprojizierende Diffusionsgitter verbergen. Integrierte Teleport-Transponder erlauben das schnelle Verlegen ganzer Einsatztrupps, vorausgesetzt das Trägerschiff verfügt über die eigens kalibrierten Augur-Sequenzen. Die Leistungsreserven der Rüstung tragen Waffen, die andere Terminatoren kaum heben könnten, etwa Plasma-Bombards, schwere Disintegrator-Geschütze oder die gewaltige Saturnine-Erschütterungshammer. Auf dem Schlachtfeld dienen Saturnine-Trupps als lebende Rammböcke. Sie brechen Schildlinien, säubern Bunkerzüge und können selbst Ordonnanz-Panzer im Nahkampf spalten. Ihre Schutzsysteme widerstehen selbst konzentriertem Beschuss, der jeden gewöhnlichen Legionär hinwegfegen würde. Der Preis für diese Überlegenheit ist immens: Nur wenige Schmieden beherrschen die komplizierte Fertigung, die Neural-Verknüpfung verlangt außergewöhnliche Willenskraft, und die Wartung bindet ganze Tech-Kohorten. So blieb die Rüstung selten und wurde meist an Praetoren, Elitesequenzen oder besonders traditionsbewusste Orden vergeben. Während der Horus-Häresie waren Saturnine-Trupps auf beiden Seiten zu sehen, doch ihre geringe Zahl machte sie zu gefragten Speerspitzen. Nach der Belagerung von Terra gingen viele Anzüge verloren oder wurden als heilige Relikte unter Verschluss gestellt. Wo heute noch ein Saturnine-Terminator auftritt, hallt ein Stück der frühesten Imperiumslegenden nach.

You are missing at least eighty percent of what is happening around you right now. You are missing what is happening in your body, in the distance, and right in front of you. In marshalling your attention to these words, you are ignoring an unthinkably large amount of information that continues to bombard all of your senses. This ignorance is useful: indeed, we compliment it and call it concentration. It enables us to not just notice the shapes on the page, but to absorb them as intelligible words, phrases, ideas. Alas, we tend to bring this focus to every activity we do. In so doing, it is inevitable that we also bring along attention's companion: inattention to everything else. This book begins with that inattention. It is not a book about how to bring more focus to your reading of Tolstoy; it is not about how to multitask, attending to two or three or four tasks at once. It is not about how to avoid falling asleep at a public lecture, or at your grandfather's tales of boyhood misadventures. It is about attending to the joys of the unattended, the perceived 'ordinary'. Even when engaged in the simplest of activities - taking a walk around the block - we pay so little attention to most of what is right before us that we are sleepwalkers in our own lives. This book is about that walk around the block, and how to rediscover the extraordinary things that we are missing in our ordinary activities.

The beautiful Colena Dalton has inherited a great fortune following the untimely death of her enormously rich father, Sir Arthur Dalton, in Paris after a long illness. After overhearing the Comtesse de Lyons telling her charmless son, Pierre, that he must propose to Colena as they need the money, she decides that she wants to marry a man who really loves her for herself and not for her money. It is then that she and her cousin, Elizabeth, who has been living with Colena and her father in France, decide to change places. The two girls return to London where they join the Social world and are at once invited to endless parties as Sir Arthur's death has been widely reported in all the newspapers. And immediately the fortune-hunters start circling. One of them called Oliver Stone becomes particularly persistent and bombards Elizabeth, thinking that she is Colena, with attention and invitations, while ignoring Colena. As expected he proposes marriage and will not be shaken off whatever the girls try and in order to escape him they drive of Colena's father's house in the country. There they find they find that two famous paintings have been stolen and hearing that there is to be a sale of pictures and other treasures nearby, the girls go there to try to replace the pictures. It is then that they meet up again unexpectedly with the unpleasant Oliver Stone who tries to abduct Elizabeth and force into marrying him. Then an unfortunate accident occurs that changes everything. How Colena and Elizabeth meet the men of their dreams, who love them for themselves and not for their money, is told in this intriguing story by BARBARA CARTLAND.

"Een van de beste thrillers die ik dit jaar heb gelezen. Het plot is intelligent en houdt je vanaf het begin geboeid. De auteur heeft uitstekend werk geleverd met het creëren van een reeks personages die volledig uitgewerkt zijn en zeer vermakelijk. Ik kan nauwelijks wachten op het vervolg." --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (over Any Means Necessary) Dit is boek #5 in de bestseller Luke Stone thriller serie. Wanneer China dreigt de VS failliet te laten gaan door zijn schulden op te eisen, zijn Amerikanen wanhopig op zoek naar radicale verandering. President Susan Hopkins, die zich verkiesbaar stelt voor herverkiezing, is verbijsterd terwijl ze de uitslagen ziet binnenkomen. Haar rivaal—een krankzinnige senator uit West Virginia die campagne voerde met de belofte China's eilanden uit de Zuid-Chinese Zee weg te bombarderen—heeft, ondenkbaar genoeg, gewonnen. President Hopkins weet echter dat ze de macht niet kan overdragen. Dat zou de Derde Wereldoorlog ontketenen. Ze moet bewijzen dat de verkiezingen gestolen zijn, en de dreigende oorlog met China stoppen. Zonder iemand anders om zich tot te wenden, roept ze Luke Stone op, het voormalige hoofd van een elite FBI para-militaire eenheid. De inzet kan niet hoger zijn terwijl ze hem opdraagt Amerika te redden van zijn grootste bedreiging: zijn eigen gekozen president. Maar terwijl de ene schokkende wending de andere opvolgt, kan het zelfs voor Luke Stone te laat zijn. Een politieke thriller met non-stop actie, dramatische internationale settings en hartverscheurende spanning is boek #5 in de bestseller en door critici geprezen serie, een explosieve nieuwe serie die je tot diep in de nacht pagina's zal laten omslaan. "Thriller schrijven op zijn best. Thriller liefhebbers die genieten van de precieze uitvoering van een internationale thriller, maar die de psychologische diepte en geloofwaardigheid zoeken van een protagonist die tegelijkertijd professionele en persoonlijke levensuitdagingen het hoofd biedt, zullen dit een meeslepend verhaal vinden dat moeilijk weg te leggen is." --Midwest Book Review, Diane Donovan (betreffende Any Means Necessary)

Since the invention of black powder and the development of large cannons, artillery has been considered a gamechanger of global military history. It spelled the end for knights and castles, both of which were unable to resist its powerful impact, and it ushered in radically new warship designs, whose firepower changed the face of sea warfare forever. Artillery was seen as a vital component in the military rise of Europe, with whose armies and navies Asian, African and American native forces were unable to compete. While such ideas continue to exist, the present volumes aim is to approach the history of artillery on a broader scale by taking global developments into account and putting them into perspective. It begins by examining the mechanical artillery of antiquity with its catapults and stone-throwers. The development of the cannon from a cumbersome and unreliable bombard into a modern high-tech weapon was a long process that took centuries to complete. The efficiency of the new weapon was highly dependent not just on improved production techniques but also on transport and logistics, and on increasingly lethal and destructive ammunition. And although artillery has been considered an indispensable part of any army for five hundred years, it remained an auxiliary weapon for a long time until mass deployment of fast-firing, large-calibre, guns during the First World War made artillery the true queen of battlefields. Alexander Querengässers new book gives the interested reader an innovative overview of the history of artillery which appreciates developments both inside and outside Europe. It seeks to examine the many factors which proved decisive for its consistently improving efficiency from ancient times right to the battlefields of the present. More than 200 illustrations will provide the reader with a comprehensive visual impression of the history of this remarkable weapon.

From author and wellness personality Chrissy King, an exciting, genre-redefining narrative mix of memoir, inspiration, and activities and prompts, with timely messages about social and racial justice and how the world needs to move beyond body positivity to something even more exciting and revolutionary: body liberation.When Chrissy King first joined a gym, she had one goal in mind: to "get skinny." In pursuit of this goal, she fell into the all-too-common cycle of "not enough-ness"; no matter what she achieved, there was always something she felt she needed to change about her body, her appearance, herself. This made her realize the most liberating truth of all: She was not the problem. Diet and fitness industries rooted in white supremacy were the problem; Eurocentric and carefully manufactured beauty standards were the problem; discourses telling her that her happiness was directly tied to her physical appearance were the problem. So she created an actionable method to redefine the relationship we have with our bodies, thereby achieving a sense of self-worth that is completely separate from how we look.The Body Liberation Project is about finding actual freedom in our bodies by discovering strength and aspects of fitness, movement, and eating that work for YOU. It's about realizing that the goal is not to look at our bodies and love everything we see; it's to understand that at our essence we are so much more than our bodies. But it's also about recognizing the harsh realities that prohibit people in marginalized bodies from being able to do so. Society constantly bombards those who fall outside Eurocentric standards of beauty (think Black, fat, trans,etc.) with the message that they are less attractive, and part of the journey toward body liberation is examining your own privilege, acknowledging the harm you may be causing others, and mourning your old ideas about what a body "should" look like. Recognizing that none of us are free until all of us are, Chrissy.
